Topic: We will add another hive, yippie! (Read 536 times)

Last night hubby made the comment that we could add another hive over at the "farm". I guess he's ok with the bees in the backyard, since they've been docile and no problems yet.I went over and mowed at the farm today. Lots over white dutch clover blooming, and lots of bees working it. I felt bad mowing it, but couldn't let that part get too high.Now, I need to pick out a spot, and get another hive ordered. I was wondering if I might luck out and place the hive and lure a swarm?Sure were lots of bees out and about, and this is where we had a bee tree hive for over 10 years. They must still be somewhere in the area.If that doesn't work, I may try splitting my hive next spring, if the over winter well, and build up well.
